Markets

A market is a place where we buy the things that we need.

A market can either be an open air market, a supermarket or a shopping mall

We can buy books, clothes and food from the market.

The people who grow food are called farmers.

Farmers take their products to the markets, supermarkets and malls so that people who need them can easily find and buy them.
